Services before and after these times will be unaffected and can operate normal route, including services to and from John Masefield High School.
From Sunday 12 May 2024, we will be introducing new timetables for our Summer uplift.
The timetable changes have been designed to improve punctuality on the network, helping passengers' journeys and keeping Dorset moving. The changes have been created in consultation with Dorset Council, using feedback from local passenger user groups, as well as First Wessex drivers.
